Stalkers

azoomm · 01-11-2010, 04:41 PM

How is it that people feel the need to follow people around. Especially people that they claim to love, or have loved? I mean, do they think that being part of the other person's life will make them closer to that person in some way? OR, do they think it will make the other person love them and want to be with them?

I know, I'm trying to understand crazy. In most cases crazy won't ever be understood. I'm just looking for a little enlightenment.

If at first you don't succeed...

(You probably never will.

Nothing says "I Love You" like a restraining order.

Somebody needs to sig this.

Because you stopped answering my PMs.

Seriously, though, I'm gonna go with, "Having trouble letting go (of the good or the bad, take your pick)..."

Awwww, but you send the sweetest things when you get all fired up from my lack of response

I was thinking the trouble letting go was probably the top of the list. I mean, how dare the other person move on with their life when you can't [or won't]. That, maybe if the stalker hangs around the stalkee enough they will remember all the fantastic times and want to give it another go? Let's just forget all the psycho activity of being a bad stalker because you're busted out in the open and stuff....

I mean, if you were a good stalker no one would know you're there... right?

I don't think that is the case. I think that the stalker wants the stalkee to know how much they care, so they probably want to be seen.

Yeah, that would be the "I'm feeling pretty powerless about getting dumped (or whatever), so I'm gonna create an f'ed up relationship that I get to control" mindset.

Yeah, I'm married to a psychotherapist...

I've never understood this either. I'm an "anti-stalker", seriously, I'm the guy women get mad at because they say one negative thing and I never call them again. When it's done, it's done. There are way too many other people in the world for me to put that much effort into one person to be honest. If I call a girl 2 or 3 times and she doesn't return my calls, bang delete!

Although, I will say that sometimes I think that the world is a little quick to label someone a stalker these days. It's like if the woman likes the guy, he can follow her to the ends of the Earth. If she doesn't, he's a stalker if he stops at her work twice even if it's a public place like a restaurant. IMHO a person doesn't hit stalker status until the other person tells them straight out that they don't want anything to do with them and they still pursue. Hints don't really count.
